I am going to MU this week and we are staying in dorms. I have never seen a dorm. What are they like? What's in them? Is it just two beds? Also, I'm not sure if I should bring a bed set (like sheets and a cover) or just like 3 or 4 blankets. I really appreciate the help.

I say:

Panic! At The Disco.

That is the dumbest name for a band I have ever heard. Seriously, did they even think that one through? They could have easily called themselves "Worry! At The Car Wash" that is just as dumb...

What do you think is the worst band name...?

Water burns!
Man looking for cancer cure hopes to solve energy crisis

Is the solution to America's energy needs as simple as a trip to the beach?
The idea is a fascinating one as a Florida man searching for a cancer cure may have stumbled onto a virtually limitless source of energy: salt water.
John Kanzius, 63, is a broadcast engineer who formerly owned several TV and radio stations, before retiring in Sanibel Island, Fla.
Five years ago, he was diagnosed with a severe form of leukemia, and began a quest to find a kinder, gentler way to treat the disease compared to harsh chemotherapy.
In October 2003, he had an epiphany: kill cancer with radio waves. He then devised a machine that emits radio waves in an attempt to slay cancerous cells, while leaving healthy cells unharmed.
His experiments in fighting cancer have become so successful, one physician was quoted as saying, "We could be getting close to grabbing the Holy Grail."
But in the midst of his experiments as he was trying to take salt out of water, Kanzius discovered his machine could do what some may have thought was impossible: making water burn.
"On our way to try to do desalinization, we came up with something that burns, and it looks in this case that salt water perhaps could be used as a fuel to replace the carbon footsteps that we've been using all these years, i.e., fossil fuels," Kanzius said.
The possible ramifications of the discovery are almost mind-boggling, as cars could be fueled by salt water instead of gasoline, hydroelectric plants could be built along the shore, and homes could be heated without worrying about supplies of oil.
"It doesn't have to be ocean salt water," Kanzius said. "It burns just as well when we add salt to tap water."
Kanzius has partnered with Charles Rutkowski, general manager of Industrial Sales and Manufacturing, a Millcreek, Pa., company that builds the radio-wave generators.
"I've done this [burning experiment] countless times and it still amazes me," Rutkowski told the Erie Times-News. "Here we are paying $3 a gallon for gas, and this is a device that seems to turn salt water into an alternative fuel."
Kanzius has been told it's actually hydrogen that's burning, as his machine generates enough heat to break down the chemical bond between hydrogen and oxygen that makes up water.
"I have never heard of such a thing," Alice Deckert, Ph.D., chairwoman of Allegheny College's chemistry department, told the Times-News. "There doesn't seem to be enough energy in radio waves to break the chemical bonds and cause that kind of reaction."
Thus far, Kanzius' discovery has not received extensive national publicity, but has been featured on several local television news programs, including WPBF-TV in West Palm Beach, Fla., WSEE-TV in Erie, Pa., and WKYC-TV in Cleveland.
"We discovered that if you use a piece of paper towel as a wick, it lights every single time and you can start it and stop it at will by turning the radio waves on and off," Kanzius told the Times-News as he watched a test tube of salt water burn.
"And look, the paper itself doesn't burn," he added. "Well, it burns but the paper is not consumed."
Kanzius said he hasn't decided whether to share his fuel discovery with government or private business, though he'd prefer a federal grant to develop it.
"I'm afraid that if I join up with some big energy company, they will say it doesn't work and shelve it, even if it does work," Kanzius told the paper.
Video of TV news reports of water burning can be seen from these affiliates:
WPBF-TV in West Palm Beach, Fla.
WSEE-TV in Erie, Pa.
WKYC-TV in Cleveland

Why can't they accept the proof provided by study after study that demonstrates that the death penalty deters crime? After all, they think we should all drink the kool-aid about man causing global warming.

"Science does really draw a conclusion. It did. There is no question about it," said Naci Mocan, an economics professor at the University of Colorado at Denver. "The conclusion is there is a deterrent effect."

The only evidence libs have that the death penalty doesn't deter crime is all their whiny hot air.

Did I miss Something?

Just Meadow walking the street and Blank. I screemed Ah F**K !!!!Not Now, Why Now??. Since I have Direct TV I thought the Signal went out. I switched channels and went back and The credits rolled in. I thought I missed something in that transition.

With those odd looking people glancing at Tony, What happened? Was this the hit of another mob family and were waiting for all four sopranos to be seated that way all four are killed together?

Was the FBI in Undercover protecting Tony or was this an FBI bust on Tony?

That ending sucked. After almost a decade such a show ended this way? So, so, Lame..... This episode is'nt even worth to be a Finale.

Something has to be done with all this anger adding up within everyone.

I like "I'm No Good" better because of the beat and I know all the words to that song, but I don't know why people choose "Rehab" over "I'm No Good" doesn't make sense.

i totally respect your POV, but i really want to know-

isn't it really the specific religious definition(s) of god that offends your intelligence?

what do you think about this definition?

"God" is the Process of Life being Life...the Energy that cannot be destroyed but can only change form, the Intelligence behind the Process of Evolution itself, the State of Being
